I think that the one next to 8385 just might need a little bit of work itself. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :lol: :mrgreen:

As usual, good stuff.

ALL great, really like the shot(s) of the "J".

The 611 doesnt get old. Like EVER! :)

Hearing that whistle just brings chills up your arm ( well for me it does!)

I think the passengers gave up & walked at this point!

Christopher,
The photo above with the UP loco has a really interesting mixture of colors and textures.
This would make another great scene to model.

Thanks! I've wanted this shot for a while, but you can only get it when cloudy. A very similar shot at this spot was in the NS company calendar last year
